***The 2022 Offensive Line***

[lo country]

Might be worth trying Chancellor Brewington at fullback to help out the offensive line so Grant has someone blocking for him.

Brewington's strength is blocking and he can run short routes good enough to help in the pass game as well.

Another package might make it tougher on opposing defenses.

2 back set would help out tremendously for sure.

PFF grades from the 5 that got the most snaps vs Rutgers

Corcoran 27.2

Piper 49.6
Hixson 54.9

Bando 47.3
Anthony 47.8

For reference:

90-100 Elite

85-89 All-Conference

70-84 Starter

60-69 Backup

Ouch.

This OL in a nutshell. Replaceable.

And if Benhart’s PFF grade were included it would lower the average even further. Being this bad is more of an anomaly than being extremely good. Obviously development has been s#!t but what’s to blame more? Coaching/technique, S&C, recruiting?

He only played 7 snaps and graded at 62.4

I meant it more as a general statement, not his specific grade in this one game. But the fact he graded better than the others yet played so poorly he got pulled, speaks volumes about this OL. They’re just bad and apparently no one behind them. I’d like to place some blame on Whipple’s play calling but I have to wonder what he could call that they would block any better.

CT was pressured on 26 of his 38 dropbacks.  Rutgers brought more than 4 on 11 snaps.

That’s insane. This is historically awful

It's been 5 years.  Don't put this on me.

I prefer technicians and some nastiness...

 

[SouthLincoln Husker]

We also had a starter suspended for this season, so we are down 3. We need to recruit better!

Weak link .... Raiola

Really can't imagine anyone being successful with what we got.

Didn’t NU have the Lutuvsky kid that starts for KU now?   Thought he looked good yesterday.

Henry Lutovsky is a RFr OG. He backs up Bando and gets a handful of snaps each week.

Ahh thx.   I don’t follow the roster much outside of who’s playing and saw that name and m the KU game and vaguely remembered NU recruiting a lineman with that last name.   Appreciate the info.  

 

[BigRedBuster]

That's amazing, I didn't know that.

And many NU fans and his head coach thought it was a mistake for Cam to go pro. #selfish
